For many, a gallery wall with family photos is the ultimate home decor. Not only do you get to add beautiful artwork to your walls, but you get to show off your amazing family as well. Each wall gallery I design is totally custom to each of my families. No two clients are the same, so no wall gallery turns out the same. It’s all about each client’s preferences and, well, their story! Some clients come to me with a clear vision of what they want in their artwork, and sometimes, they come to me as a blank canvas. Both are totally fine.

Sadly, Rachael lost her dad in July 2022. Through a conversation catching up on business and life, Rachael shared how much she treasures every image she has of her dad, but that she really wished she had more with him. During this conversation, I realized how important it was for Rachael to share this story with others. She agreed to let me interview her for her own blog!

Our family photos are the most treasured items in our lives. Long after we’re gone, our photos will tell our stories and keep our memories alive. Taking the time for family portraits is one of the best things you can do for your family. However, if you tend to shy away from being in photos because you’re worried about how you look, you are far from alone.

Family photography is wonderful for your family! Sound too good to be true? I’m more than happy to back up my claim while showing off this amazing Woodstock area family. This sweet family of four was so fun to photograph at my favourite meadow location. With so much silliness and giggles, it’s no wonder we got such lovely candid shots.

Displaying your family photos is so much more than simply putting a photo on the wall. You’ve worked hard to achieve a successful career and start a beautiful family. You’re proud of the life you’ve built, and you fiercely love your growing family. Lovingly displaying your portrait artwork on the walls of your home creates a timeless representation of the beautiful life that you’ve built and allows you to soak in these busy years with your loved ones.

Spring is such an underrated time to take your family photos! The long winter is finally over, the sun is shining, the earth is green, and you look at your children and realize how much they’ve grown! Spring family photos are a wonderful way to celebrate this new season while documenting your growing family and preserving your memories with cherished portrait artwork.
